Show Your Face: Why Avatars Matter for Conference Networking

[sarahmarie]

I think everyone should put their photo as their avatar. I just did! i want to see your faces. If I go to conference this year i need to know your beautiful faces!

If you don't have a small enough digital photo or want one cropped and don't have the software you can send it to me and I would be glad to crop and size it to fit on here.

Follow the link on my sig line. Sonja is the better looking of the two of us.

My AV is designed to remind you that I'm not afraid to point out when the Emporer has no clothes.

 

[dannyzmom]

My avatar has my pic...I am the brunette next to Doris

 

[PamperedMelanie]

You've already seen me....Na! Na!

 

[gilliandanielle]

I agree! Everytime someone posts a picture I see how off my mental picture of them was! I like being able to think of people how they actually look! Anne was a short brunette with big hooters before she posted her pic, LMAO!!!

 

[tlennhoff]

I have a picture in my profile so you can go there to see my face. I really don't like looking at it all the time which is why I use an avatar instead.

I do wear glasses, my hair is always covered by a hat, so the picture is not tooooo off.

I know what you mean, lol! I will try & get a pic on here soon....my dh has been bugging me do make a myspace page too

Sarahmarie: like your pic

 

[chefkeri]

having upload problems/?? too big?

Oh, oh, oh,
Look, look looky here.... It worked! Wow!

I will be at conference '08!

 

[sarahmarie]

woo hooo! I can see!

 

[sarahmarie]

I agree! Everytime someone posts a picture I see how off my mental picture of them was! I like being able to think of people how they actually look! Anne was a short brunette with big hooters before she posted her pic, LMAO!!!

And what changed? He he!

 

[chefann]

Well, here's another Ann who is brunette with big hooters. I'm just not short. I'm exactly average - 5' 6".

The pic avatars are nice. On the forum my DH moderates, he's made a rule that the avatar can't be a pic of just the person - it has to include their car. (It's a classic car forum.) That's to "maintain the dignity and decorum of the site." pfffft.

Cheffers have way too much fun to worry about decorum!

 

[elian]

Here's mine. I don't post much. But thanks for all the great ideas!

 

[jrstephens]

I am the one with long blonde hair in the pic! ha! Although I need to crop one better so you can actually see what I look like.

They'd tell me to get out of the way so they can get a better look at the car.

The Kat Lady wants to re-decorum our kitchen. That's too much like work, though.

 

[lacychef]

Lacy- You were all blond in my head!

Is that a good thing? Or does that mean you thought that because I say dingy things at times? lol, just kidding!

I almost snorted coffee out my nose when I read this.
TKG, you're too much!

 

[rebeccastt]

I finally got my picture up here. I had to crop one that I had of me with my family at the apple farm a few weekends ago. I don't ever have pictures of just me....

 

[mom2leelee]

I got my pic up. I can't find one of just me. I'm the bride, by the way.

 

[bbauman07]

One of these days I will get a pic of myself on here. I just never take pics of myself

 

[mommyhugz1978]

Not alot of people do unless I tell them....... this pic only shows half of the business cards that were on her desk durning the tour!!

I never realized this was Doris' desk

 

[yummy4tummy]

Maybe we should have people describe what they imagine we look like BEFORE we post our picture. That way we will know whether or not we want to change that image. Wouldn't that be fun?
